Fabia vRS For Sale - 05 Black Magic

[stevenh]

As discussed in the Fabia 1 section, I am looking to shift my wee Fabia as it's just not getting used any more - I either bus or cycle to work.

 

I have had the car 3 years and have always spent money on it whenever required, the spec is as follows:

 

2005, 05 Reg

86,000 miles (might go up slightly)

Black Magic

Taxed until end July 2014

Motd until 18th July 2014

4 good Uniroyal Rainsports 2

New discs and pads all round last year

New rear shocks last year

New radiator last year

 

Modifications are as follows:

 

BMW Red Leather interior retrim

Currently running on 4 VAG 7.5" steel rims (original alloys available for extra £ as well)

Colour coded front grille

Tinted windows

F&R Wishbone bushes replaced with Powerflex poly bushes

Mufflerectomy (stainless with twin outlet)

Elegance parcel shelf (cargo net underneath)

Boot liner

Pastyboy retro badges

Polo rear wiper

In-dash cup holder

Connects2 ipod lead in glovebox

Audi springs fitted to handbrake lever

 

OEM Skoda roof rack

Detachable swan neck tow bar & electrics

 

Now for the not so good bits:

 

There are 2 dents, one in drivers door and one in rear passenger door where some numpty either kicked or put their knee into it. The dents are both around the size of a Galaxy S4 - I have been quoted £220 to get repaired

The engine management light is on - code read points towards coolant sensor which I have replaced with OEM VAG one but light came back - think this could be a wiring issue but car runs fine as it is - have another sensor bought from Darkside Developments Update: Had this looked at by a VAG mechanic - he thinks running a new wire from the ECU to the sensor would be easiest fix.

Aircon needs a regas

NSR brake squeaks - think possibly sticky piston due to lack of use Update: Seems to be getting better the more I drive it!

Battery (new last year!) keeps going flat - it went flat just as I moved into a new house in May and I left it for 4 weeks, I think this killed the battery - looking to source a new one. New battery purchased on Saturday (Bosch S4) with 4 year warranty - solved this issue.

 

As it stands, I would take £3,000 £2,650 (without spare alloys) to take it away, if I get everything repaired then the price will rise accordingly to recoup my spend.

 

Car is now back on it's original plate of SJ05NWT and I received the V5 back from DVLA (they lost my cheque so it took longer than expected!!).

 

I have attached some pictures so you can see she really is a smart looking wee car, even with her faults and for a few quid she will be running great again.

 

She used to belong to another Briskoda member 2 owners before me so she has been well cared for throughout her life.

 

Cheers,

Steven

That interior!

[stevenh]

Purchased a new battery on Saturday morning, solved issues in that area.

 

Currently waiting on DVLA returning docs so I can remove private plate.

 

Talking with VW Tech about getting some other issues resolved.

 

Took the opportunity to give her a clean inside and out at the weekend and take some photos - shows up the 2 dents on drivers side.

 

You can see the dents in this one...

 

I also looked out the Service History:

Can't believe this is hasn't gone!! GLWTS fella.... 

[stevenh]

OK, got my V5 back from the DVLA today (they lost my cheque so it took longer than expected!).

 

The car is back on the original plates - SJ05NWT and ready to rock.

 

I have reduced the price to £2,800 as it stands, firm as I think this is fair given the condition (good & bad) into account.

 

Cheers.

[stevenh]

reduced to £2,650 without the spare alloys.

 

Cheers.
